Yeah that's not a good sound, do you have oil pressure? Will it stay running or does it get quiet and you are shutting it off?

Check the Intake Grid Heater stud connection to see if it is loose. If it is loose and/or melted then I'd suspect the nut on the inside of the intake probably melted off and got inhaled into the combustion chamber. Not good.
